ABUNDANT
NKFW Movie Screening

Saturday, May 17, 2025
Matinee – Timing TBD
AMC Theater (Mayfair Mall) –  2500 N Mayfair Rd Suite M186, Wauwatosa, WI 53226

 

Save the Date! Join NKFW for a matinee screening of the movie “ABUNDANT”.

ABUNDANT is a documentary film that follows the unbelievable events that occurred when a cast of kidney donors came together to create a live staged storytelling show.

ABUNDANT enters the world of extreme altruism: non-directed kidney donation where people donate kidneys to complete strangers. Through touching personal stories and illuminating interviews with nationally-acclaimed experts, ABUNDANT explores how our culture struggles with abundance and what we can do to become more altruistic as a community.”
